Chapter 85. The day will dawn 6(1/2)
Natural disasters are a natural phenomenon, and natural phenomena mean they have traces to follow and their origins can be traced.
Since the establishment of the Secret Sanctuary, natural disaster messengers have spread all over the place. Almost every natural disaster has been recorded, including when and where it occurred, what its scale was, what the casualties were, what the triggers were, and when it subsided.
But this natural disaster in Saint Aral clearly exceeded the expectations of the two natural disaster messengers. It was no longer a cold natural disaster, but began to become conscious.
"It's for Rhode Island, or it's for a certain person or item. Don't worry, I have a sense of discretion."
Provence worriedly said: "I would rather face those monsters. I hope we don't cause trouble to Rhode Island."
…
"No, it's not a problem."
Asker obviously didn't sleep all night, and he couldn't sleep either. He didn't have any dissatisfaction with Zhou Jinru's sudden visit.
After Zhou Jinru expressed his intention, Asker fell into a rare long silence. After a long time, he asked: "Those things are not the property of Saint Yalal, and it is impossible to borrow them, but Aguang, I can give them to you."
, can you use it?"
"I don't know, maybe I'm a genius and I can learn everything at a glance."
Ask shook his head: "No, I can guess what you want to do, but we haven't reached that point yet. The mobile city under our feet is accelerating, and it is only a matter of time before we avoid the natural disasters behind us."
"We don't have time to guess at riddles here, Mr. Asker. You are responsible for the hundreds of thousands of people who are still alive. When they are all left behind forever by natural disasters, it will be too late to regret."
"Ah Guang, one of the two Leopards was damaged by you. I have a use for the other one and can't lend it to you. I don't think you will be satisfied with the remaining four Foxes."
Zhou Jinru said calmly: "I only want one, and the Fox type can also be used."
"There is no manual or operating manual. Do you have a Victoria pilot's certificate?"
Zhou Jinru spread his hands: "I don't have anything..."
Ask sighed: "This is crazy."
He tried to make Zhou Jinru give up his idea: "Everything is your guess. How do you know that natural disasters are targeting you?"
Zhou Jinru stared into Asker's eyes: "I am sitting in front of you now. The Timos family has complete control over this city. I can check where the most violent attacks are."
Although Ask didn't believe it, he still made two calls. A few minutes later, the old housekeeper standing in front of the map showed a look of astonishment.
The first to be attacked was Rhode Island's defense line. They fought back with powerful firepower and eliminated the enemy without much effort. The only loss was their ammunition reserves.
Rhode Island's powerful firepower is partly due to the fact that the Origin Stone monsters gave up their frontal landing on Rhode Island and switched to the St. Aral people's defense line.
There is almost no connection between the two, because the St. Aral's defense line is quite hidden, hidden behind more complete fortifications. Their firepower may not be as good as the Rhode Island operators, but they have more people and extremely strong defensive performance.
Currently undergoing the test of the Origin Stone monster.
If he insisted on saying that it had anything to do with Zhou Jinru, Asker looked at the letters marked on the map and came up with an extremely ridiculous answer.
The straight line distance between them is the shortest.
"I've never heard of anything like this."
"You heard it now."
Ask pinched the bridge of his nose and felt a little tired: "Aguang, St. Aral can throw in a few more city districts. We have the ability to build more, but we can't live without our friend Rhode Island."
"Okay, Mr. Asker, let's be honest, how much more losses can Saint-Aral endure now?"
Zhou Jinru leaned on the back of his chair, lowered his head and glanced at his watch: "I am absolutely sure that I am not going to die. I can't bear to leave my girls."
"A Fox, I will send someone to help you, but if you can't control that thing, don't mention it again."
Zhou Jinru exhaled and said the same: "I want to go to an uninhabited area, preferably an abandoned factory, so that the damage caused will be minimized. You must ensure that the connection of the abandoned factory must be controlled by Saint Yalar.
If it doesn’t work, just cut off the tail and try to survive.”
The previously destroyed steam mechas were all left in St. Aral. Zhou Jinru believed that the Timos family would definitely not let go of this batch of weapons and equipment, and the time was urgent and it was impossible to transport them out of the country, so it was most likely that they were in the core city of natural selection.
in the warehouse.
In that battle to ambush the Sinner, after four seemingly fierce steam mechas were controlled, the pilots decisively surrendered, so the steam mechas were not damaged. Although they looked a little rough on the surface, they were actually just like new ones.
Same.
Zhou Jinru stood in front of a two-meter-tall Fox-type steam mecha and looked at it carefully. Compared to the four-meter-tall Leopard-type, the Fox-type seemed to be particularly compact, but even with these things, flesh and blood could not stop it at all.
The person in charge of guiding pointed the Fox steam mecha with an infrared pen and explained: "The Fox focuses on agility. It is different from the Leopard and above steam armor. It is the only pocket mecha with the ability to be worn. Its components are divided into parts.
It provides energy for the head, neck guard, breastplate, armguards, gloves, belt, skirt, leggings and boots. The back is equipped with a micro steam power tank. Six pure Origin Stones can be inserted to charge the whole body mecha.
In the case of linear movement, the maximum operating time can reach thirty-six hours."
Zhou Jinru frowned slightly: "What if I frequently make dodges and leaps, lunge multiple times, and get attacked?"
"About four hours will cause varying degrees of damage to the steam mecha."
The production process is very poor and the material strength is not up to par.
When Zhou Jinru heard this, his heart went cold. He originally thought it was a powerful piece of equipment that spanned the ages, but he didn't expect that Victoria just built it based on the blueprints, and the subsequent optimization was minimal.
In other words, these mechas cannot be used as conventional combat equipment. At best, they are secret weapons that can be used two or three times.
The Leopard steam mecha would collapse after one hit from the front, while the Fox mecha was probably even weaker. He suddenly wasn't too worried about Victoria suddenly pulling out something like a space battleship, because it couldn't be built.
"Before this natural disaster is solved, I cannot stay in one place for too long, nor can I sit still and wait for death. As long as Saint Yalal has not escaped from the scope of the natural disaster, my staying in the center will only increase the danger."
Zhou Jinru came up with the idea of steam mechas in order to strengthen his defense capabilities. In the face of unknown natural disasters, he always felt that relying on rigid shields might not be enough.
"Please note that there are pulleys under the boots, and the miniature steam power tank on the back also has a jet function. Most of the time, the pilot does not need to walk on his own."
The guide spoke very carefully. While Zhou Jinru listened, he disassembled one of the Fox steam mechas with the help of other staff and put it on himself.
When he put on the leggings, he bent his knees and felt a little stiff. He couldn't help but ask: "Can these things really enhance agility?"
"Of course. If you feel tired now, that's because the steam power tank is not turned on."
Zhou Jinru patiently put on all the parts neatly, except for the helmet. He tried to punch, and the punching movement was a beat slower than when he was empty-handed...
This piece of equipment was simply vulnerable, and he felt that the humanoid shadow behind him could easily crush any piece of armor.
"Mr. Aguang, the steam power tank has been filled with six pure source stones. You can start the steam mecha at any time."
Zhou Jinru didn't forget that this thing costs money, so he said: "I will reimburse you for the fuel cost."
He pressed the button under the arm guard, and the joints of the various parts emitted a red light. For a moment, he suddenly felt that this burden on his body was no longer so heavy, and his movements became faster accordingly, as if the equipment was carrying the body.
He used the pulley to move a certain distance and made two turns in the spacious warehouse. The pulley on the back of the boots worked better than expected. As long as his reaction speed could keep up, he could run extremely fast and make very exaggerated movements.
.
It can only be said that the Fox type is an anomaly among steam mechas, because the Leopard type at the next level is completely different from an exoskeleton to a mecha.
Zhou Jinru didn't know how to ripple, but it was no problem to run quickly.
…
…
The purple arrow that cut through the air penetrated the two Originium monsters. Faust stood in the dark, watching the monster whose whole body was covered with crystals shatter into tiny Originium particles. Almost at the same time, the phantom crossbowmen stopped together.
, a crisis was eliminated in their hands.
"It would be too simple to just deal with these things."
Faust glanced at his nonchalant subordinates, turned around and left. It was a waste of time and energy, so he might as well take the time to rest.
His fingers involuntarily touched a belt worn around his waist. The things the leader brought were more useful than expected. They were indeed stimulating his potential, but the corresponding physical exertion was too much. Out of a kind of
Aware of crisis, Faust believed that this thing consumes not only physical strength, but even the life of the user.
"There are always people who cannot refuse the temptation of power."
Pressing the buckle lightly, Faust took off his belt without feeling anything. He stared at the snake head in the middle of the belt. Every time he activated the Origin Stone skill to attack, the snake head's eyes would glow red, thus strengthening the attack.
, and can even speed up the operation of his Origin Stone skills. The purple arrow, which was originally launched at intervals, can now be automatically triggered on the third attack after two attack actions.
No, this thing can't be used anymore.
Faust threw the belt on the ground, ran over the snake's head with the heel of his leather boot, and crushed the rectangular device to pieces.
"Chief, no Originium monsters were found that followed!"
The subordinate's report made the young man frown and asked: "Is there any news from the Yeti team?"
"The Yeti monster replied that there are no more Origin Stone monsters in Rhode Island's defense line."
not like this.
Faust raised his face, and he could still feel the malice stinging his skin in the gloomy night sky. This crisis had not disappeared. The reason why he stopped attacking was because the target had left.
"Is that doctor from Rhode Island directing the battle?"
"No, the Snow Monster Team said they found no trace of Dr. Rhode Island. He seemed to have left the Rhode Island defense line shortly after the battle began."
After thinking for two seconds, the unsmiling young man said in a low voice: "Contact the ghost army and ask if the target has been found."
The phantom crossbowman wondered: "Chief, isn't our target the doctor?"
His question did not receive any answer. The young man stared at him, as if being stared at by a poisonous snake. Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the phantom crossbowman, and he hurriedly left: "I'm going to ask."
After a while, Faust received the information from the ghost troops. The doctor left the Rhode Island defense line and went to the core city of natural selection. He left the core city ten minutes ago and headed for the abandoned factory.
